proposes now to start from Albany, as

The worthy Dutchmcn who settled on
the banks of the Hudson were more hos
pitahle to birds than their descendants
have shown themselves to be. They not
only let the birds alone, but encouraged
them to build their nests about the
houses. These wise settlers knew that
the birds would pay for their protection
by feeding on the insects that swarm in a
now country.
Each largo Dutch house had a portico,
tloorcd Ike u room, open Mt the sides,
wi,h seats all around. Above a slight
roof, painted like an awning, or a cover
ing Of lattice work, over which n trans
planted wild grape vine spread its luxuri-
ant leaves.
Here hundreds OF little birds domesti-
Gated, occupying q small shelf built
round the portico, where they were as
sacred as the household gods of the Ro-
mans. Children and slaves were taught
to regard them as the good genii of the
family, who were to be cherished, but
not disturbed.
In clearing the ground for u house a
tree was always left in the middle of the
backyard for the use of the birds. The
negroes, quick to initiate their masters,
used old hats to form asylums for their
little feathered friends. The deal fences
were also utilized by the negroes to fur
nish homes for the birds. On the stakes,
to which the deals were nailed, were
stuck the skeleton heads of horses and
cattle, the jaws being fixed in the poles
so that the skulls should be uppermost.
In those days there were no pot hunt
ers. The small birds wera so tame that

drinking tea in the air portico-a sum-
mer custom-they constantly glided

There is no doubt that woman can, if
she will, qualify herself to do anything
that a man can do; for no psychologist
will question the possibility OF develop
ing by appropriate stimuli, exercise and
food, any particular part or parts of an
organism in such q name as to make it
respond to the demand of its environ
ment;" and it must, therefore, be theo-
retically possible that the woman shall be
developed in respect to any one or more
of her organic potentialities to a level
with the male. But she must do so ut
the expense of some other power, and
this is usually at the sacrifice of some
function that makes her valuable as a
woman. The real question in the matter
is whether it is worth while to pay so
great a price for the privilege.-London

There are three kinds of mirrors known
to commemorative French plate, the Ger
man plate and the common American
glass, usually called ''shocks." The lat
ter can be told by their tendency to plant
the nose well around toward the ear, or
n more or less successful effort to get both
eyes in the same place. The German
plate is imported in regular sizes, already
silvercd. 1t is a very thin but generally
perfect glass, and comes about one-fifth
cheaper than the French plate, which is
used altogether for first class mirrors.
The difference can be told by pressing the
finger on the face of the glass, by which
the thickness can readily be perceived.
There are three factories in the United
States manufacturing plate glass, but
none of them has yet succeeded in secur-
ing the necessary whiteness and freedom
from bubbles. Imperfections that are
not noticeable in clear plate become very
prominent when silvered. ''Silvering
quality" glass, as it is known, is carefully
selected by the French manufacturers and
sold for that purpose, commanding a
higher price than the balance of the pro-
duct.
There are two different processes of sill
vering, mercury being used for one and
nitrate of silver for the other. The latter
are known as patent backs" although
not patented, and arc generally replacing
mercury on account of the greatly de-
creased risk in handling. In the former
process asheet of %tinfoil, somewhat larger
than the mirror wanted, is placed upon a
level table, the bed of which is of glass or
marble, and which must be absolutely
clean and free from ever the slightest
scratch. Strips of glass are then placed on
the edges Of the foil to prevent the mer-
curry from running OFF. AS much mercury
as the inclosurc will hold is then poured
over the foil, after which the plate is
floated on and entirely covered with heavy
iron weights. The table is then tilted and
the surplus mercury drains off, after
which they are stood on edge to dry,
which requires from one to two weeks.
In making a ''patent back the glass is
laid on a table, underneath which is a
steam coil. The nitrate of silver in soln-
ton is then poured on, a gentle heat APP
piled and the silver precipitated. The
back is then painted and the mirror is
complete. Either process requires o great
amount of skill and care. Absolute cleanli-
ness is imperatively necessary in every
part of the work. Distilled water is used
in cleaning tho plate preparatory to silver
ing, and a drop of perspiration or dust
spoils the work.-Globe Democrat.

he really committed au error of judg

failed to bid high enough cannot be
known until after the investigation which
